After o boxing combination, for example the jab cross hook, do you think it's better to jump into the low kick or keep your support leg on the floor?

Great video! Really helped me out.

@PeresHenrique i would keep it on the floor and finish with a short chopping kick

I like everything your teaching, the only difference I like is getting the upper torso more involved. I like to think of my upper torso as a spinning top for the power kick only. I use a more traditional faster, more static round kick for training purposes and against trained fighters bc i don't like the extra motion from the power round kick against them. Your thoughts? I feel like for a street fight though I can use it it though. I actually feel like a get another 20% power, maybe more idk.

@bmx7596 I believe you are right on the money about the upperbody.Ive had other comments on my upperbody motion.I think because i concentrated on breaking down the leg part in some of my video's i do not demonstrate nor speak enough about the upperbody.It creates torque and counter balances the kick.Itsuse is dependant on skill set and setup that will allow the power kick in the ring or the street.

I'm not sure if i'm kicking correctly, but every now and then I get bumps on my shin which start to hurt everytime I kick on that part of the shin. Sometimes it stops me from kicking for weeks. How do I get rid of these bumps and how do I avoid them later on? Please answer this whenever you can thanks a lot n I subscribed

@timootei you need to start massaging pre and post with thai linament.Rub the shins upwards,and stretch the sheath muscle by pointing the toes forward and backward post training.Back off on your power and give your shin more time to strengthen and condition to the repetitive trauma of the bag.Increase your intake of magnesium,calcium and potassium.I have found this to create a more vibrant healing environment during your conditioning phase.
